The Semester's End Approaches

Ok, so I'm trying to be productive after sitting around the house all day playing Tiger Woods on the Xbox... I just couldn't get any motivation until about an hour ago.  Last night's class was way shorter than normal.  We only have five more classes before the end of the semester.  I'm kind of shocked at how fast it's flown by.

Our end of semester projects are going to be due soon.  I will be keeping a digital portfolio to turn in.  I'm pretty sure I'm going to use the movie "The Producers" by Mel Brooks for my analysis.  It's hilarious and it's also full of race, class, and gender messages.

We got split up into our groups again and we were assigned group projects.  My group will be discussing how African Americans have been portrayed in the mass media, past and present.  We looked up various cartoons and videos for our presentation.  I'll be putting the finishing touches on the Power Point presentation this weekend.  Not much else was discussed.
